Chapter 842: Ups and downs
The army slowly went out of the city, the Shannan coalition army had already been defeated, at this moment saw Lu Dongzan's army retreating, and their morale plummeted and they did not dare to continue the attack, they could only watch the Shannan coalition army withdraw from Qiong Jiecheng, and gradually go away, to be honest, the leaders of the Shannan tribes were very puzzled, they knew that Lu Dongzan must have grabbed the little prince, but what made them very puzzled was that Lu Dongzan had already captured Qiong Jiecheng, why had it not been established, why did it withdraw? Although it is said that Lu Dongzan led the troops to come mainly to rob the little prince, since he finally captured Qiong Jiecheng, how could Lu Dongzan not spend some time completely establishing Qiong Jiecheng and completely occupying Qiong Jiecheng? I don't understand it, but they really can't understand it and they are just glad, although the little prince was snatched away and made them feel unwilling, but Lu Dongzan did not continue to attack, and finally let them save a lot of strength, of course, they are not willing to lose the little prince like this, after all, Lu Dongzan got the little prince with the name of righteousness, then the strength will only get stronger and stronger in the future, and there will definitely be no good fruit to eat in their Shannan in the future, not only did the army not slow down after leaving Qiong Jiecheng, but Lu Dongzan kept urging to speed up the march, This accelerated march, Princess Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang realized that something was wrong, Princess Zhenzhu couldn't help but ask the surrounding soldiers, but the surrounding soldiers were tight-lipped, they had already been told by Lu Dongzan, so no matter how Princess Zhenzhu inquired, they didn't dare to say anything, but Princess Zhenzhu kept inquiring about this matter and it reached Lu Dongzan's ears.
"Lao Chen knows that the princess and princess are puzzled that Lao Chen left Qiong Yucheng so soon, and Lao Chen should not hide it from the princess and princess, he has not told the princess and princess before, in fact, he is afraid of scaring the princess and princess."
Lu Dongzan said in a deep voice, he couldn't figure it out, anyway, this matter would reach the ears of the princess and princess sooner or later, it was better for him to say it directly, of course, it was also because, now that he had left Qiong Yucheng, he was not afraid that this matter would reach the ears of the leader of the Shannan clan, worried? It's a surprise, right? She wished that Lu Dongzan was unlucky, the more unlucky, the better, Mengsa Chijiang hummed.
"Then tell me what happened."
Lu Dong exclaimed.
"The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty has already attacked the plateau, and they want to get involved in our Tibet! If our Tubo is still unified, then there is no need to be afraid of the Tang army, but now that Tubo is divided and strife, it gives the Tang army an opportunity! If this continues, our Tubo will surely perish, and now we can only abandon our prejudices in order to drive the Tang army out of the plateau! ”
Mengsa Chijiang and Princess Zhenzhu also showed surprise on their faces when they heard this, they never thought that the Tang army would take the opportunity to attack the plateau!
"I know that the princess and princess still have misunderstandings about the old ministers, don't the princess and princess still understand? This is all Datang's trick! It's a discordant plan made by the Tang Dynasty in order to plot against us! It just wants us to break up Tibet and then take advantage of it. ”
Lu Dongzan said sincerely.
"At this time, only the princess and princess issued an order in the name of the little prince to recruit the warriors of all tribes, and only by working together can they repel the Tang army!"
Monsa Chijiang snorted coldly.
"Aren't you a dignified man? With a single order, the people gathered to lead the army to attack Shannan, and it was not easy to defeat the Tang army? ”
Lu Dong praises the positive color road.
"There are no unscrupulous generals in Shannan, no one obeys anyone, although the warriors of various tribes have gathered a lot of troops, they are just a rabble, and it is not difficult to defeat. But the Tang army is different, the Tang army can conquer the world, and the leader is a famous general in the world, and must not underestimate the enemy, how can the Tang army be defeated, these days the old minister is exhausted, even if he is doing his best to give up his life, the old minister must defeat the Tang army, keep the foundation that Zampu has worked so hard to lay, and I hope that the princess and the princess can think clearly, this huge foundation is the foundation of the little prince after all, if you can't defeat the Tang army, what should the little prince do? ”
After finishing speaking, Lu Dongzan bowed and left, isn't he just a female streamer, can he even coax and scare it have no effect at all? Mengsa Chijiang listened to the ups and downs in his heart, and gritted his teeth.
"It's been so long, and I've finally heard a good news, as long as Lu Dongzan's dog thief is unlucky, no matter which tribe he is Tang Jun or which tribe, I am happy to hear it! Lu Dongzan also wants us to make an order in the name of Gongri Gongzan, which is really wishful thinking! I wish the Tang army defeated Lu Dongzan and killed this dog thief father and son! ”
Although what Lu Dongzan said was high-sounding, but Mengsa Chijiang had long concluded that it was Lu Dongzan's father and son who ambushed Songtsen Gampo, because these days I don't know how many tribes are verifying this matter, although Qinling did it cleanly, but still left a lot of clues, all of which proves that what the soldiers who fled back said are true, so no matter how much Lu Dongzan quibbles, Mengsa Chijiang will not be deceived by it, and even, the dialogue between Songtsan Gampo and Qinling has been spread, Lu Dongzan and his son just want to seek the position of Zampu, so Mengsa Chijiang understands that now that it is in the hands of Lu Dongzan, the chance of turning the tables is very slim, she has a bitter hatred for Lu Dongzan and his son, since she and her son can't live, then of course she wants to pull Lu Dongzan and his son to die together, she dreams of killing Lu Dongzan and his son, since she can't do it herself, the tribes in Shannan can't do it, if Tang Jun can do it, it's not bad, as for who Tubo belongs to, since it can't belong to her son, it doesn't matter who it belongs to, Princess Zhenzhu said quietly.
"I hope that Lu Dongzan can defeat the Tang Army!"
Mengsa Chijiang listened and wondered.
"Zhenzhu, why are you still praising Lu Dongzan?"
Princess Zhenzhu shook her head slightly.
"I'm not looking at Lu Dongzan, the Tang Army's combat power is indeed very strong, if Lu Dongzan defeats the Tang Army, it must be a tragic victory, Lu Dongzan's strength is greatly damaged, in this case, can he still suppress other tribes?"
Mengsa Chijiang listened to the small mouth slightly open, and finally reacted, nodding again and again.
"That's right, Zhenzhu, you're right, maybe this is our chance to turn defeat into victory!"
Princess Zhenzhu sighed faintly.
"It's a pity that we don't know how to fight, and we don't know if Lu Dongzan can repel the Tang army, if not, it will be troublesome."
Mengsa Chijiang's heart moved, and he asked hesitantly.
"Zhenzhu, you have a very close relationship with the Duke of Rongfu County of the Tang Dynasty, I don't know if he is the one who leads the troops this time, if it is the Duke of Rongfu County who leads the troops, with your affection for him, then he, can he raise his noble hand?" Princess Zhenzhu knew what her sister-in-law was thinking, and wanted Li Yong to lead the army to help quell the rebellion and support Gongri Gongzan to ascend to the position of Zampu, but, how could that be?
That's not Li Yong's private army, it's Datang's soldiers and horses, representing the will of Datang, besides, how deep is there affection between her and Li Yong? Princess Zhenzhu smiled bitterly.
"I and Rongfu are just ordinary friends, how can there be any deep friendship?"
Monsa Chijiang wondered.
"But, Zhenzhu, you are so infatuated with Li Yong, and you don't want to think about it after you come back, then Li Yong, he ......"
Princess Zhenzhu smiled bitterly.
"It's just unrequited love, his wife Princess Changle is noble, beautiful as a fairy, gentle and considerate, their husband and wife are very affectionate, he just treats me as a friend, and now after a few years, I'm afraid even that bit of friendship has faded."
Mengsa Chijiang was a little disappointed when she heard this, in her opinion, Princess Zhenzhu is definitely one of the best beauties in Tibet, and she is heroic, lively and cheerful, which man would not like it? So she thought that Li Yong and Zhenzhu had a deep relationship, so after Zhenzhu came back, she didn't think about it, thinking of this, Mengsa Chijiang couldn't help but sigh, and Princess Zhenzhu said in a low voice.
"If it really comes one day, I will beg Li Yong."
Mengsa Chijiang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, although the hope was a little slim, but there was always some hope, the mighty army continued to advance, Lu Dongzan was still a little worried in his heart, and suddenly a cavalry galloped over.
"Great Minister, Great Minister, there is a large army ahead!"
Lu Dongzan couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, how could there be a large army ahead? Did the Tang army still dare to cross the city of Luo and attack Shannan directly? Aren't you afraid that you will be cut off by the defenders of the city? Or are they the soldiers of other tribes? Now that the soldiers and horses of each tribe are holding on to their own territory or fighting with neighboring tribes, who will really attack him?
"The army immediately halted its advance and prepared for battle!"
Lu Dongzan decisively ordered, and the army suddenly stopped preparing to fight, which surprised Princess Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang, and then felt a little surprised in their hearts, could it be that a tribe rushed to King Qin? It would be nice if this was the case, the only pity is that King Qin's soldiers and horses are still a little late, if they can come earlier, when Lu Dongzan is still attacking Qiong Jiecheng, then Lu Dongzan will definitely not be able to attack Qiong Jiecheng, so he can only withdraw his troops in defeat, now, it's hard to say, I don't know how many soldiers and horses came, can I defeat Lu Dongzan? Even if Lu Dongzan is defeated, Lu Dongzan will not let go if he is afraid, and he will definitely flee with them, Princess Zhenzhu muttered.
"Fortunately, we also brought a lot of tribal warriors, you go and say hello to them, once the fight starts, we will find a chance to escape. After escaping, let's find a place to hide for the time being, and take a look at the situation. ”
Mengsa Chijiang nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, let's escape when we find an opportunity, and then hide, even if we raise Gongri Gongzan incognito in the future, it's better than letting him fall into the fire pit at a young age."
The entire army was ready for battle, and suddenly a scout cavalry galloped in.
"Prime Minister Qi, the soldiers and horses in front are Shang Lun leading the army to come."
Listening to the scout's report, Lu Dongzan was stunned, he thought that the soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared in front of him might be the Tang army, and it might be the cavalry of which tribe, but he didn't think that it would be the defenders of the city, because the Tang army had already attacked, and the most important thing now was to hold the city, and he also sternly told him to keep the city of Luo, and he couldn't fight anyway, why did Qinling still lead the troops out of the city? Even ran here?
"What? Is it Qinling? Go and call him! ”
Lu Dongzan shouted with a gloomy face, Princess Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang have been paying close attention, looking forward to the two armies fighting so that they can find a chance to escape, so they soon received the news that it was Qinling who came with the defenders of Luo Some City, is it to support Lu Dongzan's army? They felt very disappointed, they still thought that they could take the opportunity to escape, but they didn't expect that it was not the cavalry of the tribe at all, after the disappointment, they felt a little puzzled, Lu Dongzan led the army to win the battle, and there was no need for the support of the Qinling army, and the Tang army was attacking, shouldn't Qinling defend some cities? Even they know about it, so don't Qinling know? Seeing Lu Dongzan like this, even he didn't know that Qinling would lead the troops to come, Princess Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang glanced at each other, and hurriedly urged the horse to walk forward, although they were very disgusted with Lu Dongzan, and they couldn't wait to crush Lu Dongzan's bones and ashes, and they didn't want to see him, but they still wanted to go over to find out the news, and led the defeated army all the way, Qinling's expression had become very haggard, although he later got rid of the pursuit of the Tang army, but the thought of facing the old man, he was very depressed in his heart, and the feeling in his heart was very complicated, On the one hand, he also wanted to see the old man quickly, so that the old man could get an idea, on the other hand, he was afraid of seeing the old man, because he felt that he didn't have the face to see the old man, although he was afraid of seeing the old man, but he couldn't avoid it, fortunately, he had already thought of a statement when he came.
"The child meets his father!"
Qin Ling jumped off the horse and knelt down on one knee, Lu Dongzan's face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice.
"Didn't I tell you to hold on to the city of Logos? How did you come here with troops? Who asked you to come? Where has the Tang army attacked now? Who is guarding the city of Logos? How many defenders are there in the city? ”
Qin Ling said bitterly.
"Father, the city of Raksha has been lost!"
Lu Dongzan was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief.
"What do you say? Is the city lost? With 40,000 troops guarding the city, how could it fall so quickly? ”
For his own arrangement, Lu Dongzan has a lot of confidence, even if the Tang army wants to attack the city, it is impossible to break through the city so quickly?
"Could it be that the Don Army has artillery? But the artillery was very cumbersome, how could the Tang army transport a lot of artillery to the plateau? Or did you not heed my advice and took the initiative to send troops? ”
In the end, Lu Dongzan looked at Qin Ling sternly, and Qin Ling said in a low voice.
"Father, the Tang army has been burning, killing and looting, and the people's resentment is boiling, so I can only take the initiative to attack, but I left Ben Danbu to defend the city with 2,000 soldiers and horses, and he is incompetent......"
Before Qin Ling finished speaking, Lu Dongzan was already furious, and slapped him hard, snap! This slap was very hard, and it directly slapped Qin Ling fan to the ground.
